Tomorrow is our August burger Meat Up. We’re visiting a new-ish restaurant. I believe only 1 person from our group has been there.
I know - clearly a protocol violation with the red wine cooler - but still a killer burger night here, with sautéed onion and 'shroom topping, first local corn of the summer (two hours from the pickin'), and perfect "fast food fries" from the oven. Yummers!
Cheers!

Meat Up! I ordered the Elvis burger and the Hangover Burger to split with a buddy. We had 11 people this month, a little low. Summer kills us.
These burgers were fantastic! The wings, pretzels, and fried pickles also. I had a local IPA from Killz Boro, a local brew pub owned by a kid from my old homebrew club and a Narragansett Lager.

How was that Elvis burger? I'm a undecided whether or not it sounds good.

Surprisingly very good. The toughest critic in the group loved it. I was honestly shocked he even ordered it. This was the first Meat Up ever, out of around 25 or so, without a single complaint.
Again, I don't like to be "that guy" taking pictures of my food at restaurants, so this is the picture from their website.

Had a quandary yesterday. My wife's sister had a baby, so we were planning on going to visit and taking some food--including a dish that required 1# of ground beef. So I set to defrosting some very lean ground beef. And I realized we didn't have any of my burger blend (chuck + brisket point) frozen, so she was going to pick up some non-lean beef at the grocery store.
Well, she changed the dish she was taking to her sister, which meant I was defrosting some 95% lean beef. Which is... Well, not exactly ideal for burgers.
So I asked her to pick up a couple slices of bacon from the store. Ground up a few ounces of bacon in the food processor and added it to the beef to increase the fat content. She had bought significantly more bacon--and they were VERY thick slices--than I needed as well. So I grilled the bacon and the burgers, and so we got beef+bacon burger, topped with more bacon.
Add some home-fried onion rings, a Pizza Port IPA, and away we go...

WANT! 
Sautéd onion and sweet peppers from our garden, L, T, Jack cheese and mayo. No beer, we’re trying to “be good” during the week.

Awesome!!!
Turn the flash off, no one will ever know.
Best burger in my town. I haven’t been in a while. Served with hand cut fried potatoes and a really creamy slaw and pickles. Enjoyed a Guinness with it.

I'm slipping! Today is National Cheeseburger Day! I'd already begun marinating a london broil before realizing my mistake. I may have to make up for it tomorrow.
Was drinking wine for this one, so not beer. Wife had bought a new bottle of Educated Guess red blend, so we decided to try it together.
I didn't love it. So I went back to drinking Green Flash West Coast IPA after this glass.
Burger was an attempt at a smash burger. Didn't achieve the true crust associated with a smash burger, but with my burger blend it was juicy and delicious.

Looks more authentic than the Mexican food I once had in rural Kentucky...

They were surprisingly good, and easier to make/eat than messy smashburgers.
Well...that's like ordering a fisherman's platter in North Dakota...
Cheers!
